405 Guests! You are all welcome here!! Come one, come all!!!

Lately I've seen an upsurge of guests and right now there are 405 guests! Wow!

I was like all of you, not knowing whether to join or not. I will say that you will not find a better site full of the most wonderful, caring people all with great positive attitudes! This is the real deal from real people who have all been through the quitting process and ready to help out. To have someone in your cheering section is such a motivator to stay quit. Trust me... I smoked more than a pack a day for over 30years - I was a professional smoker. If I can do it, you can too! Come on, we are all here ready to help you get free from this awful addiction. You will be so glad you did.

I read and lurked for many weeks before I had the nerve to pipe up (now they can't get me to pipe down... lol).

So come on in,work the program and join us..... we will welcome you with open arms!

Cold Turkey Started Today!

Hi Rock,

A big welcome is in order! You are doing a very brave thing to quit and you will LOVE being quit without those stinky cigarettes. We are all here and ready to help you... others will be along soon.

Any medical advice is best to come from your doctor but all of here can offer scads of advice on quit ideas-

First off, be sure to complete the program... there are ideas there for you. Most importantly... work on the rewards!!!

That is how to rewire your brain! Much needed so do not neglect this aspect of the program.

I've seen these suggestions-

Stay distracted...crossword puzzles, computer, games, movies, this site.

Stay busy.... cleaning, projects, go out, exercise

Other than carrots, I've heard of lollipops, straws, cinnamon sticks, hard candy, popsicles (or ice lollies if you happen to be in the UK ;), toothpicks. Me personal favorite was very strong mints and red licorice.

but THE NUMBER ONE MOST POPULAR ANSWER is

ICE WATER!!!!

Yes, you heard it here but it's actually the Daily Llamas line..." ice water, ice water, ice water ". He is the king of ice water!

Many, many have sworn by the water bottle. Regular or with the sport cap (nozzly thing) pull out cap.

Ice chips too.

Hope some of this helps. Also go back and read old posts too... there is a wealth of information if you dig around in the forums. Cold turkey is the fastest way to get that nicotine out of your system...most will be gone in three days. Hang tough through this week. We are your cheering section!
